Exit of EPA boss a protest

Exit of EPA boss a protest. “EPA chief Lisa Jackson suddenly resigned last week because she was convinced that President Obama is planning to green-light the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline… ‘She was going to stay on until November or December,’ said a Jackson insider. ‘But this changed it. She will not be the EPA head when Obama supports it [Keystone] getting built.'” Sounds like a win-win.

  • Yeah getting caught lying to congress had nothing to do with her resigning. And now blabbing about "Dear Leader" giving a green light to the pipeline might just cause her the dreaded "Cerebral Hemorrhage"

  • I'm sure the congressional inquiry into her questionable practices had nothing to do with her resignation. Transparency!

  • Why would he green-light it after he won the election? Does anybody really think he puts jobs ahead of environmentalism?

    • You've it backwards. His opposition earlier was to appease the greenies. Now he needs to appease unions and non-union blue collar alike.

        • Unions even though diminishing overall can still make life difficult for him. Instead of being violent against anti union people they can get violent against him.
